Oven Braised Short Ribs With Pasilla Tomato Mole Recipes

Steps:

• Place the flour with the coriander, cumin, garlic powder and ground mustard in a shallow dish, and mix well with a wooden spoon. Generously sprinkle the short ribs with salt and pepper, then dredge both sides in the seasoned flour one by one, making sure to shake off any excess flour.
• In a large Dutch oven over medium heat, add 2 tablespoons oil. When the oil smokes, add the short ribs in batches. Brown the short ribs until a golden crust starts to form, about 5 minutes on each side. Once brown, reserve and continue until all the ribs are brown, adding more oil as needed. Set the ribs aside.
• While the short ribs are browning, heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. When the skillet is hot, add the pasilla chiles and toast until they start to smoke, about 4 minutes. Remove the chiles and submerge in the hot water. Allow to steep until they become soft and pliable, about 10 minutes. Remove from the water and puree in a blender with 1/4 cup of the steeping water. Set aside the puree.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Add the carrots, garlic, onions and celery to the Dutch oven. Cook until the vegetables caramelize, about 15 minutes. Deglaze the pot with the red wine, and then add the tomatoes, beef broth, hominy and reserved pasilla chile puree. Bring the whole mixture to a simmer. Start adding all the browned short ribs back into the pan. Cover and cook until the short ribs barely start falling off the bone, about 1 hour 30 minutes.
• Season with salt, pepper, cilantro and parsley; garnish with a lime wedge and serve.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325°F. Spray 12-inch nonstick skillet with nonstick cooking spray. Heat over medium-high heat until hot. Add short ribs; cook 6 to 8 minutes or until browned on all sides.
• In ungreased 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish, combine tomatoes, broth, wine, flour, chili sauce, thyme, marjoram, salt and garlic-pepper blend; mix well. Add browned ribs, carrots and onion; stir gently to mix. (Baking dish will be full.) Cover with foil.
• Bake covered at 325°F. for 2 hours.
• Uncover baking dish, bake an additional 20 to 30 minutes or until ribs are tender and liquid is slightly thickened.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 275 degrees. Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season short ribs on all sides with salt and pepper. Working in batches, sear short ribs on all sides until deeply and evenly browned, 6 to 8 minutes per batch. Transfer browned short ribs to a large plate and continue with remaining ribs.
• Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of remaining fat, leaving the good browned bits behind. Reduce heat to medium, and add garlic, cut side down and cook, undisturbed, until golden brown, about 1 to 2 minutes. Add onion, celery and carrots and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat and continue to cook until vegetables are softened but not yet browned, about 5 to 10 minutes. Add tomato paste and stir to coat. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until tomato paste has started to caramelize a bit on the bottom and up the edges of the pot, about 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add red wine and, using a wooden spoon, scrape up any browned or caramelized bits. Let this simmer 2 to 3 minutes, just to take the edge off and reduce a bit. Stir in beef stock along with thyme. Using tongs, return short ribs to the pot, along with any juices that have accumulated, nestling them in there so that they are submerged (if they are just barely covered, nestle them bone side up so that all the meat is submerged, adding more beef stock or water as necessary to cover). Bring to a simmer, then cover and transfer to oven.
• Cook, undisturbed, until short ribs are meltingly tender and falling off the bone (you should be able to shred the meat with a fork), 3½ to 4 hours.
• Using tongs, remove the ribs from the pot, taking care (for presentation purposes, really) not to let the bone slip out and transfer them to a large plate. (While you could serve the short ribs right out of this pot, the vegetables have all given up their flavor and texture and aren't worth much now, so feel free to strain the sauce for easier eating.) Scatter parsley, chives and lemon zest over the top of the short ribs. Separate the fat from the sauce, season with salt and pepper and serve alongside.

Steps:

• Mix all the ingredients except the meat and potatoes in a 9- x 15-inch roasting pan. Add the ribs and rub all over with the marinade. The meat should fit comfortably in a single layer in the pan. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for 6 hours or up to overnight. Occasionally turn the meat over in the marinade. Remove from the refrigerator 30 minutes prior to cooking.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Braise the short ribs for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, reducing the heat to 350 degrees Fahrenheit after an hour. Turn the ribs over. Add the potatoes in the last 40 minutes of cooking. Add water to the pan if too much liquid evaporates. You want to end up with glistening ribs in a reduced glaze.

Steps:

• 1. In a heatproof bowl, cover the chiles with boiling water and let stand until softened, 20 min. 2. Meanwhile, roast the tomatoes directly over an open flame , turning occasionally, until charred in spots and just starting to soften, 5 to 8 min. Transfer to work surface and let cool slightly, then coarsely chop. 3. In a large saucepan, heat 1/4 C of oil until shimmering. Add the chopped tomatoes, onion, garlic, oregano, cinnamon stick, allspice, cloves and a generous pinch each of salt and pepper. Cook over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until softened and saucy, 8 to 10 min. Let cool slightly; discard the cinnamon. 4. Drain the chiles, reserving 2 C of the soaking liquid. Add to a blender along with tomato mixture and puree until mole sauce is smooth. In a large saucepan, heat 1/4 C of the oil. Add sauce and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until reduced to 3 1/2 C, about 30 min. Stir in vinegar &season mole with salt and pepper. 5. Preheat oven to 350°. In a large skillet, heat remaining 1 T of oil until shimmering. Season short ribs with S & P. Cook half of ribs over moderately high heat, turning occasionally, until browned about 10 min. Transfer to a small roasting pan. Pour off all but 2 Tof fat from the skillet and repeat with the remaining ribs. 6. Spread 2 T of mole on each rib and arrange bone side up in roasting pan. Add stock to roasting pan and cover tightly with foil. Braise ribs in oven for about 3 hours and 30 min, until very tender. Transfer the ribs to a platter and serve, passing the remaining mole at the table. Shop & Save During Maytag November Savings www.lowes.com/maytag Make Ahead The ribs can be refrigerated overnight.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 300 degrees. Very generously season the ribs on all sides with salt and pepper. Heat a Dutch oven or large heavy pot over medium-high heat. Add the oil and heat for 1 minute. In a single layer, working in several batches if needed, brown the ribs well all over, 6 to 8 minutes a side. Transfer the ribs to a platter.
• Add the onion, carrot, and celery and cook until browned, 5 minutes, stirring often. Return the ribs to the pot and add the bay leaf and water to cover. Bake, tightly covered, until very tender, about 3 hours.
• Meanwhile, prepare the mole. Tear open the chilies, removing and discarding the stems and seeds. Place the chilies in a bowl with 2 cups warm water and soak until softened, 15 minutes.
• Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until translucent but not brown, stirring with a wooden spoon, about 3 minutes. Stir in the cumin and cook for 1 minute.
• Transfer the chilies to the pan, reserving the soaking liquid. Sauté until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the soaking liquid and all remaining ingredients. Gently simmer until the plantains and raisins are soft, about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove the cinnamon stick. Puree the sauce in a blender until smooth, then return it to the saucepan.
• Add 1/2 to 1 cup of the rib cooking liquid until the sauce is thick but pourable. Adjust the seasoning, adding salt, sugar, or vinegar to taste - the mole should be highly seasoned and a little sweet with just a faint hint of tartness. (The mole can be prepared up to one day ahead and reheated.)
• To serve, turn on the broiler or heat the oven to 450 degrees. Spoon half of the mole over the bottom of a baking dish just large enough to hold the ribs. Remove the ribs from their braising liquid, drain well, and place on top. Spoon the remaining mole over the ribs. Broil or bake until the mole sizzles and browns, 2 to 4 minutes on each side under the broiler, or 8 to 12 minutes in the oven.
